[[Terran Confederation Navy|Confederation Fleet]] [[carrier]] class. ''Concordia''s saw extensive service and faithfully served humanity during the [[Terran-Kilrathi War]].


The '''Concordia-Class Fleet Carrier''' was a class of carrier that served with the [[Terran Confederation]]. It served as the mainstay carrier of the Confederation fleet for much of the 2600s.
[[TCS Lexington (CV-44)|TCS ''Lexington'']] fought in the defense of [[Earth]] in [[2668]]. During the battle, ''Lexington'' was gutted by internal explosions, having taken the vanguard of the defending fleet.  


The Concordia-Class Fleet Carriers have seen extensive service with the Terran Confederation and faithfully served humanity for almost the whole of the [[Terran-Kilrathi War]]. First introduced in the 2600s, the Concordia was the standard fleet carrier for much of the Terran Confederation Navy for decades, and was one of the most numerous carrier classes in service.
''Concordia''s remained in active service following the end of the Kilrathi War in [[2669]]. At least two ''Concordia''s, the [[TCS Lexington (CV-44)|TCS ''Lexington'']] and the [[TCS Princeton|TCS ''Princeton'']] saw action against the breakaway [[Union of Border Worlds]] during the conspiracy of the [[Black Lance]] in [[2673]]. Both vessels were commandeered by the Black Lance for their campaign and subsequently neutralized by Border Worlds forces.


Concordias have served as the flagships for numerous Terran battle fleets and thus have seen extensive action throughout the [[Terran-Kilrathi War]]. At least one took part in the [[Battle of McAuliffe]] and many fought in the defense of [[Earth]] during the [[Battle of Earth]] in [[2668]]. During this battle, several Concordias were destroyed or damaged in the fighting. Concordias undertook numerous fleet actions against [[Kilrathi]] forces throughout the entire war.

Concordias remained in active service even after the end of the Kilrathi War in [[2669]]. At least two Concordias, the ''[[TCS Lexington (CV-44)|TCS Lexington]]'' and the ''[[TCS Princeton]]'' saw action against the [[Union of Border Worlds]] during the conspiracy of the [[Black Lance]] to remilitarize the Confederation in [[2673]]. Both vessels were eventually commandeered by the Black Lance for their campaign and subsequently neutralized by Border Worlds forces.

By [[2681]], the Concordias have been superseded by larger, superior fleet carriers, so it is likely that few, if any, are still in active service.

Confederation Fleet carrier class. Concordias saw extensive service and faithfully served humanity during the Terran-Kilrathi War.

TCS Lexington fought in the defense of Earth in 2668. During the battle, Lexington was gutted by internal explosions, having taken the vanguard of the defending fleet.

Concordias remained in active service following the end of the Kilrathi War in 2669. At least two Concordias, the TCS Lexington and the TCS Princeton saw action against the breakaway Union of Border Worlds during the conspiracy of the Black Lance in 2673. Both vessels were commandeered by the Black Lance for their campaign and subsequently neutralized by Border Worlds forces.
